Hi all
I took some AVI's of the Sun today with my DMK21 through my Solarmax 40.
They are a little off but I did enjoy my first Solar with the imager.
Details as I recall - 2.5 Power Mate, exp 1/92, Gamma 92?, Gain 733, tweaked in Registax 4 192/775 images used.
It was hot under the Brisbane Sun so I retired early - I will have another go after a few beers.
I have included an inverted image too.
Thanks for looking

They are awesome Matt. Hard to beleive that the size of that ejection is larger than Earth.

Thanks gents
I tried to get out again today - I set up under very nice blue skies, did some visual observing, grabbed the computer and camera and voila! clouds.
I was somewhat disappointed as there was a very large arch / loop prominence that was begging to to captured. Always tomorrow and always changing.
See ya
Matt
